Practical ideas for facilitating workshops & people development

There are hundred’s of field days run across rural Australia every year with varied success. I would like to collate your ideas so we can share the Wow factor and all enjoy more great learning opportunities.

What’s the most important thing that gives the Wow factor at field days for you? (why?)

What’s the big field day mistake? What would you do differently?

I’d love to hear from you and will share the collective wisdom in future posts.

You can add a your answers in a comment to this blog or email me on jeanette@agconsulting.com.au

I will also collate the responses and combine them into a document which will be provided to you as recognition of your valuable contribution.

Comments on: "What gives a Field Day the Wow factor?" (3)

I love that feeling you get when you leave a field day and know that everyone has contributed their little bit. It means they felt comfortable in the group, and confident to express their experiences. This is what I try to aim for in every activity I run; be it a paddock walk or formal workshop.

Microphones – there is nothing worse than not being able to hear a good speaker.
Relevant topics with good speakers.
Good organisation – networking time is really important but standing around waiting for the next thing to happen just looses continuity and audinence interest.

Thanks for your great comments. I have recieved many email replies as well and look forward to collating them for you all to read.
Please continue to post comments and feedback on Field Days with Wow!
Many thanks
